MKDirections : Directions Not Available - ios

Question

I am creating an app like an UBER and i am using MapKit ,i want to display route between two locations and for this i have use following code
viewMap.delegate = self
let sourceLocation = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: sourceLatitude, longitude: sourceLongitude)
let destinationLocation = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: destinationLatitude, longitude: destinationLongitude)
let sourcePlacemark = MKPlacemark(coordinate: sourceLocation, addressDictionary: nil)
let destinationPlacemark = MKPlacemark(coordinate: destinationLocation, addressDictionary: nil)
let sourceMapItem = MKMapItem(placemark: sourcePlacemark)
let destinationMapItem = MKMapItem(placemark: destinationPlacemark)
let sourceAnnotation = MKPointAnnotation()
sourceAnnotation.title = strSource
if let location = sourcePlacemark.location {
sourceAnnotation.coordinate = location.coordinate
}
let destinationAnnotation = MKPointAnnotation()
destinationAnnotation.title = strDestination
if let location = destinationPlacemark.location {
destinationAnnotation.coordinate = location.coordinate
}
self.viewMap.showAnnotations([sourceAnnotation,destinationAnnotation], animated: true )
let directionRequest = MKDirectionsRequest()
directionRequest.source = sourceMapItem
directionRequest.destination = destinationMapItem
directionRequest.transportType = .automobile
let directions = MKDirections(request: directionRequest)
directions.calculate {
(response, error) -> Void in
guard let response = response else {
if let error = error {
print("Route Error: \(error)")
}
return
}
let route = response.routes[0]
self.viewMap.add((route.polyline), level: MKOverlayLevel.aboveRoads)
let rect = route.polyline.boundingMapRect
self.viewMap.setRegion(MKCoordinateRegionForMapRect(rect), animated: true)
}
extension HomeVC: MKMapViewDelegate
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, rendererFor overlay: MKOverlay) -> MKOverlayRenderer {
let renderer = MKPolylineRenderer(overlay: overlay)
renderer.strokeColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.2392156869, green: 0.6745098233, blue: 0.9686274529, alpha: 1)
renderer.lineWidth = 2.0
return renderer
}
I have check all the possible solution and i am also getting latitude and longitude of source and destination Locations but i still its not working and i am getting following error.
Please help me with this!

Answer 1

Apple maps directions is available to specific countries only. Please check full list here. Apple Map Availability list (Check in Maps: Directions section). You should look into Google Map SDK in your app is targeting countries not listed in above link.

This works for me and it draws the destination in the MK Map, also it focuses to the destination
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, didSelect view: MKAnnotationView) {
let request = MKDirectionsRequest()
request.source = MKMapItem.forCurrentLocation()
request.destination = MKMapItem(placemark: MKPlacemark(coordinate: (view.annotation?.coordinate)!))
request.requestsAlternateRoutes = true
request.requestsAlternateRoutes = true
request.transportType = .walking
let directions = MKDirections(request: request)
directions.calculate { [unowned self] response, error in
guard let unwrappedResponse = response else { return }
for route in unwrappedResponse.routes {
self.myMapView.add(route.polyline) self.myMapView.setVisibleMapRect(route.polyline.boundingMapRect, animated: true)
return
}
}
}
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, rendererFor overlay: MKOverlay) -> MKOverlayRenderer {
let polyLine = overlay
let polyLineRenderer = MKPolylineRenderer(overlay: polyLine)
polyLineRenderer.strokeColor = UIColor.blue
polyLineRenderer.lineWidth = 2.0
return polyLineRenderer
}
this works when you click on a MKAnnotationView, if you want to draw from another code you just have to cut the code to your function and change the line
request.destination = MKMapItem(placemark: MKPlacemark(coordinate: (view.annotation?.coordinate)!))
to
request.destination = MKMapItem(placemark: MKPlacemark(coordinate: (CLLocationCoordinate2D(/*Your Location*/))!))
